Knowledge organization
• B. Sosińska-Kalata: Research and practice area related to
tools preparation, which aim is to provide quick and
efficient access to knowledge resources;
• KOS: structures, tools and methods used to knowledge
organization in various types of environments and for a
variety of specific objectives.

KOS by B. Hjørland
• Two approaches to KOS:
• Narrow interpretation, typical for information science
(document description, indexing and classification);
• Broader interpretation, meaning social division of
mental labour, where KOS are associated with
production and distribution of „knowledge”, organization
of publications, traditions, disciplines and people in
different cultures.
11 Warszawa, 15-16.04.2013
KOS in a broad sense
• Any structure that serves to confer some knowledge resources of the organizational structure, that facilitates users to access the knowledge (B. Sosińska-Kalata).
• Tools:
• Libraries, traditional and digital*
• Museums and e-museums
• Archives and e-archives
• Encyclopaedia and e-encyclopaedia
• Repositories of digital documents
• Knowledge portals
and also
• Division of scientific areas and disciplines used to organize scientific activities
• Division of areas of practice activities used to work and labour organization.

Conclusions
• PKO model (Publishing as KO) allows simultaneous
presentation of knowledge and publishing processes;
• It uses results of previous works in both directions;
• A comprehensive view on the processes allows the
terminology rearrangement;
• The model can be used to investigate and explain the
phenomena associated with scientific publishing (and
more broadly – with communicating), including its
transformation into an electronic form.
